How employees describe working at Safeway
You took over shoppers at green spring shopping center about a month ago. We expected a nice store with upgrades like the on in Towson or owing mills. Instead we got a store that is half empty, old products, no lighting, dirty and uninviting store. We feel like you are dumping your worst here
Everything is very. Good now
Safeway has no soul. They wont let people wait for cancellation or no shows for vaccine.
I have been a customer of Safeway for over 30years. And looking for a career change, based on the store at 7th Street and Glendale the employees always were happy. At Fountain HIlls is not the same.
I can count on quality from Safeway and the employees are their biggest strength.
